Bird fancier's lung diagnosis in times of COVID-19

The identification of bilateral ground-glass opacifications on thoracic computed tomography (CT) in the COVID-19 ongoing pandemic, supports the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Although COVID-19 pneumonia may present with this typical imaging pattern, itis importantto highlightthat even in an acute clinical setting this pattern it is a non-specific imaging finding and other conditions such as pulmonary oedema, non-infectious pneumonitis and infectious interstitial pneumonia by other pathogens need to be considered.
